9 PARTS OF DESIRE

By Heather Raffo
Directed by Cynthia Levin
The Jerome Stage

February 15 – March 2, 2008

A portrait of the extraordinary (and ordinary) lives of a cross-section of Iraqi women: a sexy painter, a radical Communist, doctors, exiles, wives and lovers. This work delves into the many conflicting aspects of what it means to be a woman surviving on the front lines of a war zone. A timely meditation on the ancient, the modern and the feminine in a country overshadowed by hostility.
